I stopped avoiding the numbers

Dear Delyara, I know this sounds small. It isn’t small for me. I stopped avoiding the numbers. I opened the app. Looked properly. Checked what I had been too anxious to face directly. Didn’t let vagueness keep pretending to be peace. The situation itself may not be perfect. But I feel stronger inside it now that I am not emotionally hiding from it. Sometimes financial progress begins in honesty, not income. I am trying to remember that.
